Classics Club Spin #40!

It’s time for another Classics Club spin! How does it work? You post a numbered list of 20 of the titles from your Classics Club list. The club picks a number, and that determines which book you read before the end of the spin.

If you want to participate, post your list before Sunday, February 16, and read the book and post your review by Sunday, April 11. That gives you two months to read the book. If you’re not a member of the club, all you have to do is post a list of 50-100 classic books you would like to read and set a deadline for yourself. Then sign up for the club at the Classics Club blog site. If you are having a hard time thinking of that many classic books, the reviews on our website or the Big Book List will help.

And here’s my list, with repeats, because I have fewer than 20 titles left to read:

1. Les Misérables by Victor Hugo
2. Love’s Labour’s Lost by William Shakespeare
3. The Passenger by Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz
4. Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs
5. Tis Pity She’s a Whore by John Ford
6. The Methods of Lady Walderhurst by Frances Hodgson Burnett
7. The Deepening Stream by Dorothy Canfield Fisher
8. Cecilia, Memoirs of an Heiress by Frances Burney
9. Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
10. The Princess of Cleves by Madame de La Fayette
11. The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
12. The Tavern Knight by Rafael Sabatini 
13. The Passenger by Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz
14. Love’s Labour’s Lost by William Shakespeare
15. Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs
16. The Tavern Knight by Rafael Sabatini 
17. Tis Pity She’s a Whore by John Ford
18. Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
19. The Methods of Lady Walderhurst by Frances Hodgson Burnett
20. The Deepening Stream by Dorothy Canfield Fisher

I’ve got some hefty ones in there, and I have been reading a series of tomes, so I hope I get one of the shorter ones!
